BubbleTweet – A Hot Video Widget For Twitter
Posted in Design/Development, Social Networks, Software, Twitter, Video | 22 views
You now can record a video snippet and then have it displayed on your Twitter page for any new visitors or followers to see, BubbleTweet is simple and fun – that’s always a good combination in my book.
It also offers a further personal touch to the already social Twitter experience – giving your followers a look into who the person behind the bio. Allowing your personality to truly come to life and shine.
It also has a lot of potential for both personal and corporate branding. Imagine being able to tell followers your latest news or information, but instead of tweeting it you can say it? It’s a great way to make yourself stand out in a large group of followers.
BubbleTweet uses a unique URL to host your video message on. The best way to use it is as a link from your blog, website or email signature. Once your visitors have seen the video and the bubble window closes, it then reverts to your normal Twitter URL so you control its use. I personally wish this was optionally always on however today it is not an option.
I’ve seen similar applications used on blogs before, but not Twitter. It is pretty ironic because Twitter was designed as a Micro Blog supporting only 140 characters by design. Regardless, this is a great widget to add to any Twitter page and is one of my twitter “must have” widgets for the hardcore user. This is a great little tool and I recommend you check it out.
